January hesitates. It lives in the in-between. One eye on the year we just closed, the other squinting toward what’s next. In that pause, the products that stayed with us weren’t loud or futuristic. They were familiar, but newly sharpened. A Bluetooth speaker. A raincoat. A bag. A scent. Things you already understand, done well enough to feel new again. The kind of objects that quietly remind you to enjoy the now.
Marshall Kilburn III Wireless Speaker
January is for the great indoors. A cozy night in where you listen to a hauntingly beautiful album. This speaker almost begs for nights like that.
Buy: $379.99Ferragamo Penny Loafer
It's the year of the loafer. Wear them with socks, wear them with sweats, wear them in your Sunday best. Doesn't matter. In 2026, loafers go with everything. So they're worth the splurge.
Buy: $995Oh Mon Dieu! No.69 Gift Set
Can't get enough of this sexy scent. It's part cognac, part lipstick, with notes of leather and caramel. The gift set comes with the lip incense holder, incense sticks, and a candle. Gift or keep? Your call.
Buy: $290Found Mosaic Pants
We love a pant that does all the style work for you. All you have to do is wear a basic sweater or jacket, and the these pants do the heavy style lifting, adding a touch of personality in the mosaic design.
Buy: $188Studio Underd0g x Massena Lab 03 Series Champagne & Caviar
Studio Underd0g has been on our radar for a while now. In their latest drop, the Champagne & Caviar dial design whispered to us. And since we saved up some mula from Dry January, we redirected our Champagne budget here.
Buy: $2985Baxter Wood Trawler Coat Yellow
We posted a full review of this gem. But here's all you need to know. It's the perfect raincoat, designed by an engineer-turned-fashion-designer.
Buy: $250Camilla Engström, The Sun And The Moon, 2021
Camilla Engström is an artist we've been following for some time. Her work makes us happy. And in hibernation season, it's a good idea to invest in pieces that make you happy.
Buy: $3250Signature Innovation Group Wool Ranch Jacket
Using a 27 oz wool outer developed by Filson, this jacket is urban workwear, perfected. Intentional style using fabrics that are meant to be worn. Our kind of jacket.
Buy: $395Peplord The Leather Tote
We stopped living rent free in our wife's purse and just got our own. Laptop, phone, keys, wallet, notebook, pens, an extra layer, our EDC isn't minimal. And we stand by it. Especially when it's all wrapped in this beautiful Italian bag.
Buy: $933.60Boast Cable-Knit Sweater
It's fancier than athleisure but more sporty than office-y. It's a strange sweet spot we didn't know we needed until we lived in it all January.
Buy: $185Billy Reid Herringbone Chore Coat
A white jacket wasn't on our bingo card. But it turns out, it goes with almost every pant option in our closet. This one from Billy Reid is juuust off-white enough to not feel bleached, but bright enough to make a statement with an otherwise muted outfit.
